Hi, I'm new to the forum and have found the postings quite interesting. I've had 2 micordiscectomies - both have failed leaving scar tissue pressing on the L5 nerve and partially encasing it. Moreover, I'm told I have a full, honest to goodness L6 that is apparently quite an anomoly. I've searched on "L6" and found several people out there all SCREAMING for relief.

Do any of you have an L6 and if so, how do you feel about it. Secondly, since both of my previous surgeries have failed, the next step is a "fusion" and I haven't heard anything good about this one. Does anyone have any suggestions. Thanks. Dave
